Discuss mail fraud and wire fraud
What will be an ideal response?
Federal law prohibits the use of mail or wires–telephone, television, radio, computer—to defraud another person. These crimes are called mail fraud and wire fraud, respectively. The government often includes these crimes in a criminal charge against a defendant who is charged with committing another crime but who also used the mail or wires to further his or her crime. Sometimes the government prosecutes a suspect under these statutes if there is insufficient evidence to prove the real crime that the criminal was attempting to commit or did commit. Persons convicted of mail or wire fraud are subject to imprisonment and the imposition of monetary fines.
